Sand control by perforated wellbore geometry design

Perforation is a hole to provide a good and effective communication channel between the wellbore and the productive zone for an optimum well productivity. To obtain optimum gain in perforated well productivity, perforations must be deep enough to overcome formation damage or barrier caused by dri...
